Why In My Heart Poem by Peter Mamara

Why In My Heart



by M. Eminescu (1850-1889)

Why I carry my demise
— In my heart for years?
Why is my speech monotonous?
Why is my eye disrespectful?
Why is my life in a certain style?
And why is my mind lost in thought?
Are you the woman who asks me all that?

(1869)
